Abstract

The European Academic Smart Cities Network (EU-ASCIN) project at the University of Applied Sciences (UAS) Technikum Wien, founded by the municipal government of the city of Vienna in November of 2013, aims to set up an academic smart cities network in Central and Southeastern Europe. Within the framework of the project, cooperation with national and international universities and research institutions will be established. The UAS Technikum Wien already offers study programs with some of the main topics of smart cities concept, such as smart energy, smart environment, and smart mobility. In the context of the project, these study programs will be evolved by introducing the concept of smart cities. In the first step, the introduction will be performed as courses of existing programs, and finally it could result in an independent joint or double degree program. International cooperation with partner universities, research institutions, and other academic networks should stimulate the development of the smart cities study programs through know-how exchange, stuff and student mobility, and future joint projects. For the further development of the project and support of the new study program, a Web-based platform will be established. The platform will provide up-to-date information concerning technological progress, new concepts, introduced legislative regulations and current events in the area of smart cities. Information will be presented on different levels of complexity depending on the target audience students, teaching staff, or people simply interested in smart cities. After completion of the project, the platform will act as point of information for academic education and research. The proposed paper will point out the general framework, the main objectives and the current state of the project progress.
